The Naval Cannon was one of the four war machines that were destroyed by the Assassin Ezio Auditore and had been designed by Leonardo da Vinci for the Borgia.
Usage
The Naval Cannon was similar to a regular cannon, but projected fire balls at an arched angle in order to cause wide-ranged damage. To fire the cannon, one had to pull a lever near the cannon. It was meant to be powered by two people, one to steer the gondola, the other to actually fire the cannon. Ezio managed to use the Naval Cannon by himself with relative ease, by simply switching between the roles when he needed to.
Placement
The cannon was placed on a small boat (which appeared to be a widened gondola with stabilizers) so that it could be piloted around a harbor in Napoli, and was used by the Assassin Ezio Auditore to destroy four Templar battleships. After he destroyed the battleships, Ezio aimed the cannon towards the boat itself and dived into the water before it was destroyed.
Trivia
- Successfully using and destroying the Naval Cannon grants the player the "Splash!" achievement.
- Miniature replicas of all the war machines can be found at the Armory in Ezio's Hideout after completing their respective memories.
- It is only used once during the single player story in the side mission Loose Cannon, which can be replayed at any time once completed.
- A small oversight can be observed in the final moments of the memory. Though the Naval Cannon (while usable) will fire immediately when Ezio pulls the firing lever, when aiming it at itself to destroy it, there is a minute delay before it actually fires. This most likely deliberate, to give Ezio time to escape the self-destruction.
